Thank you xIt could be withdrawal symptoms. This is not an exaggeration, carbs are addictive and when we lower the intake of them our brain's and body's react accordingly. The good news is that if you stick with it these symptoms are short lived.
Having said that, my mood can plummet during the winter months due to low light levels and has nothing to do with T2.
I hope you feel better soon, lass.
For me it passed, then returned after about 11 months, at which point I announced "I want to eat a dozen iced doughnuts, smoke forty fags, and drink two bottles of wine". I didn't do it. *sigh* The feeling is one I continue to struggle with. Coming on here helps.Some people feel a bit like that when they feel they're mourning the things they no longer eat. Do you think that's maybe happening a bit?
It's OK to feel that way, and for most it passes as they settle into their new routine.

Sorry!I don't have a sweet tooth but your mention of doughnuts made me see an image of a pot of tea and two ring doughnuts instantaneously. It may be a while before I forgive you
I'm a big fan of squeezing the juice of a lime over leaves and then dotting a bit of walnut or sesame oil over the top. Especially over spinach. Nut oils are especially great as too much is just not nice, so I tend to use them sparingly.
Having said that... I'm going through a fairly heavy Caesar dressing phase at the moment (Tesco's own is 4.95g carbs per 100g and you can generously dress two salads from a single 250ml bottle. Yummy!
Nice to know that all those hours of examining food labels in the supermarket aren't going to waste...Gosh @bulkbiker - you're such an enabler!
